How long are you likely to live? Outliving your retirement resources is a potential risk for many Americans. Most retirement planning scenarios project a 30 year retirement span but what if you live past 100?
According to The Wall Street Journal (4/26/22), the world's oldest verified individual, Kane Tanaka of Japan, born January 2, 1903, died April 19 at age 119! The next oldest living person is 118 year old Lucile Randon, a French nun born February 11, 1904!
Estimating your longevity is one of the first steps in retirement planning. A variety of longevity calculators can help you estimate how long you are likely to live.
